Job Family Group:

Global Critical Minerals and Metals supply chains are emerging as a core chokepoint for the future of the global economy, in particular as it relates to the future of energy and electrification, the physical deployment of AI data centers, robotics, and space.  These projects face complex geopolitical dynamics, stringent customer qualification requirements, and evolving project and technological timelines that make crowding together the right financing plans an entirely bespoke service.

For decades, BMO Capital Markets has been home to the largest Metals and Mining Investment Banking group by both transaction count and volume.  That same group is now expanding into Miami to create a dedicated center of excellence related to Critical Minerals and Metals.  This group will lead the bank’s engagement with critical minerals and metals project owners, governments, investors and seek to activate the full breadth of BMO Financial Group in delivering solutions for clients.  It will do so in close coordination with the Bank’s existing offices in New York, Toronto, London, Vancouver, Perth and Melbourne. 

Interested applicants should have a strong interest in the intersection of the physical and digital economies.  Backgrounds in critical minerals or metals supply chains, geology, mining engineering, finance and public policy are all welcome.  The Group is looking for applicants who are interested to be a part of building a new office and platform that can form the basis for their own long-term careers in finance.  The business has a strong global pipeline, with a particular focus on M&A advisory and bespoke equity and debt capital raising. 

Qualified applicants will have an opportunity to meet with members of the global team.  The role is based in Miami and there is an expectation of regular domestic and international travel and daily engagement with the firm’s global offices.  Training and orientation will be provided for 4-8 weeks in Toronto.  Positive attitude and entrepreneurial spirit are pre-requisite.  This is a rare opportunity to build a career in Investment Banking in South Florida at an elite platform as it relates to the Metals & Mining sector.  We expect a high volume of applicants and intend to move quickly to establish the business.
